    Rate this question:

    Stoma

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "mouth" because a stoma refers to an opening or pore in the surface of an organism, such as a plant or an animal. In the case of humans and animals, the stoma is commonly known as the mouth, which is the primary opening through which food and liquids enter the digestive system. Therefore, "mouth" is the appropriate term to describe a stoma in this context.

    Rate this question:
